Crown Tang emperor

There was such a secret rivalry in the first place, and now Dou Qi made another big mistake, provoking such an untouchable figure as Young Wang, so sacrificing him was naturally a correct choice.

It can not only resolve the enmity with the King of Hedong, but also ensure the smooth delivery of the family business.So Dou Qi misunderstood that Dou Xiyu, who had returned home, betrayed him, and it was only natural.

"The current me is just an outcast from the world, and the only thing I can rely on is the achievements I have accumulated over the years. I was indeed guilty of committing a crime to murder the king before, but now I can boast about the arrangement of the king's personnel in Xijing. With a sound, the decision of the day was correct. The dragon has various forms and never has a single appearance. Since the king has laid many, he will not be willing to dive into the bottom of the abyss for a long time..."

Li Tong was unhappy when he heard this: "The king is acting, and I need to explain to you?"

"Your Majesty is self-sufficient, so naturally you don't need to explain to anyone. The sinful body is bound here, and life and death depend on the Majesty. Although I am terrified, I am not yet desperate. I thought about the story last night. The great achievements of Gaozu and Taizong are so great. Make the most of it. The majestic king looks after his ancestors, and should be able to tolerate talents."

Dou Qi continued: "Although Dou Qi is unworthy, these years have not been spent in vain. This trip to the west is to clean up the personnel and affairs of the family in the west. In the old Sui Dynasty, there were thousands of households between Jing and Wei. After Gaozu drove into Chang'an, everything was in chaos and waiting to be decided. These official and slave households were hidden under the affairs of several families, and they were divided.

After so many years, several families have risen and fallen. The hidden households under my family, because of the proper management, now have more than 2000 households, hidden in the Longshan Mountains to live and live on their own.This part of the characters is passed on by word of mouth only by the head of Xijing. Although I don't know the depth of Meiyu and the king's words, it must be that this point has not been mentioned?Because he doesn't even know that my family still has these idle powers hidden! "

Li Tong couldn't keep calm when he heard this, and he was a little surprised: "There are really more than 2000 households?"

"Only more or less!"

Seeing the young king's expression change, Dou Qi was secretly happy for a while, and continued, "In the old Sui Dynasty, Emperor Yang was easy to build, and there were many officials and slaves gathered in Guanzhong. This part of the households has their own skills passed down from generation to generation, and the materials and crops are not inferior to official construction. The characters accumulated over the years are all hidden in the wild, and only I know where they are. There are other things about the Shu merchants, and there are many detailed rules that the family does not know. Only I can use them. As long as the king can let me live, these The use of the characters belongs to the king!"

Chapter 0292

Although Li Tong already had a lot of imagination about the hidden background of the Dou family, after listening to Dou Qi's explanation, he was still greatly surprised.

Right now, he has just started with the huge windfall that Wu Youyi had saved so hard, so he doesn't really value floating wealth that much.Of course, the more goods and the like, the better, but the demand is far less urgent than before.

What he needs now are resources that cannot be bought with floating money, or that need time to accumulate.So when Dou Qi said that his family had more than 2000 artisans hidden between Longshan Mountains, Li Tong was really pleasantly surprised.

In this era, craftsmen with mature skills are definitely a scarce resource.There are more than [-] registered members in the Guyi Club, but the number of craftsmen among them is scarce.Elders with a skill can either survive, or they will be controlled by the government and the powerful clan like the Dou family, and they will hardly be dispersed on a large scale.

Previously, because of the limited production capacity of craftsmen and other mid-to-high-end clothing companies, a large amount of hemp goods were accumulated, and Li Tong had to think of other ways to digest these hemp goods.

If he wants to engage in printing, he also needs to borrow people from Caotang Temple.Although it can also be cultivated by oneself, it is not something that can see miraculous results in a short period of time, and his time is not so easy.

He wants to order these more than 2000 craftsmen!If it can be digested, it will definitely be the most important gain from this dispute with the Dou family. With these high-end productivity, it can also bring about qualitative changes in the entire organization of the Old Clothes Club.

But this Dou family is really courageous, and they still hide so much manpower quietly.It is no exaggeration to say that in troubled times, these more than 2000 shady households can already become the basis for dominating the roost and separatist rule!

However, this is not enough to say that the Dou family really has wolf ambitions. When their Li family first conquered the world, after Gaozu Li Yuan entered Chang'an, he was both happy and worried. If the game is broken, even if they know that the big clan under their command has made such a small move, they will naturally not pursue it.

In the following decades, although the big families in Guanzhong had ups and downs, the Dou family was relatively stable overall, and their relationship with the royal family was always harmonious. It is normal for the little tricks made in the past to develop.

"Your family still has such a secret arrangement. The Dou family really deserves to be a wealthy family in the long-standing pass. It's really surprising."

Hearing what the young king said, Dou Qi's face showed joy again, and he turned to say respectfully: "As long as the king can forgive the previous crimes and give me life, all these characters will be returned to the king!"

"Untie him first."

Li Tong raised his hand and said to Yang Sixuan, although Yang Sixuan was a little reluctant, he stepped forward and untied the rope tied around Dou Qi's body.

Without the support of the hall pillars, Dou Qi lay paralyzed on the ground, but before he could catch his breath, he went up to his knees and kowtowed: "My family is He Tangen, and my loyalty is unwavering, so in this perverse world, I arouse the jealousy and harm of others. Previously, the short-witted plan disturbed the king. Now I am shocked to see the majestic majesty of the king, the hero is hiding, and he feels guilty. A wrong plan will endanger the future of the country!"

Speaking of this, he was already full of snot and tears.

As for Li Tong in the hall, it is rare to hear others praise him so beautifully that he can barely hold his nerves. His face suddenly pulled down and he said angrily: "I'm tracking with my heart, do you think I'm greedy for your family's power? If I just Such a short plan, why throw Wu Youyi's belongings into the village?"

"Don't dare, dare not! Your Majesty has a broad mind, his hope lies in the world, and his plan lies in the community. How can he be obsessed with the private interests of a family!"

After Dou Qi heard the words, he kowtowed in a hurry and said: "The reason why I made this statement is not because I want to pay more money for favor, but at the moment, I have no other plan to dedicate to the king. After that, it will become an ancestor!"

Li Tong was even happier when he heard this, pointed at Dou Qi and snorted coldly: "You are just temporarily frightened and greedy for life, even I myself have no intention of tracing my ancestors, so you are willing to follow them wholeheartedly? Not to mention the old grievances between you and me, but now there is an heir to the country, and he has a close relationship with your family? Do you believe your cunning words?"

Dou Qi's expression turned cold again, and he said with a stick on his head: "Your Majesty walks with a heavy load, without caution, it cannot last long. I know that it is difficult to win trust, but Qu Yin is not afraid to analyze it in my heart. The situation is difficult, and now I am I am already a living dead, my family name has been expelled, and my humanity has abandoned me. If I want to stand upright under the sun again, I must ask for a strange and dangerous feat, and I am doing the same thing as the king!"

"As for the entanglement with His Highness the Emperor's Heir, I have all the relatives and disciples in the world to maintain the bond, and there is no need for me, a person who has abandoned the world. Moreover, the Emperor's Heir is now secluded in the forbidden city of God, and the old servants of the family cannot see him. Even if there is any conspiracy The plan can only be a figment. The world is changing, and the position is changing. This is an evil thing that has never been seen since ancient times. It is the great wish of the people in the world to set things right. Worldly tricks?"

Having said this, Dou Qicai raised his head again, looked at the young king eagerly and said, "Is it the common people who are guilty of the perverse changes in this world? Zhisi, there is hope for all people in the world! It is only Tang Enyan who has passed on the favor and has nothing to send, so he will vote for the person who is not worthy of virtue and ability! Although the king is still hiding in the background, he is not concerned about the situation. But it is also possible to use this shade to nourish minions, accumulate willpower, and wait for the time to move!"

This guy's small mouth was quite good at talking, which made Li Tong's blood boil, and at the same time, he couldn't help but feel a little emotional. It's really not a cover that the Guanlong clan can occupy an important position in the long river of history.

Needless to say, the craftsmanship handed down by their Li family, this Dou Qi's words are full of incitement, presumably they should have been passed down from their ancestors.Perhaps the ancestors of the two families also had such a conversation at a certain moment.

Seeing that the young king was just silent, Dou Qi felt very disturbed.He didn't think that the young king didn't have the guts to support so many soldiers without saying a word. If the young king really didn't have such thoughts, he would really chop off his head and use it as a stool for others to sit on.

But he also knew that he had offended the young king very hard, and it was not easy to gain trust without any actual sacrifice.

Dou Qicai kowtowed his head again and said, "Can you ask the king to give me a pen and paper, and I will offer it in the hall."

"give him."

Li Tong raised his hand and said.

Soon, Yang Sixu found a pen and paper in the farm and brought Dou Qi down on the seat far away from the king, while staring at him with wide eyes.

Dou Qi picked up a pen and quickly wrote a book, and soon the paper was full of handwriting. He asked Yang Sixu to submit it to the king, and said: "The records on the paper are all the places where my family hides wealth and goods in the suburbs of Xijing. I am under the control of this right now." Among them, there is no other kind of talent to contribute, only this hope can be forgiven a little."

Li Tong took the paper and glanced at it casually, then crumpled the paper and threw it in the corner, and said with a sneer, "I'm willing to give you a chance, are you still bullying me ignorant?"

Seeing this, Dou Qi hurriedly turned over and bowed again: "Although there are many family members who know the location of these hidden goods, they all need special signaling to call them. I must try my best to cooperate with the king and collect the goods as soon as possible. I will never dare to hide anything for myself!" "

"Xijing is close to the ground, so your family will take less care of you? Especially after knowing that you have not gone to Sichuan, you must be more suspicious. If you know that the goods are missing, can you not guess that the situation has changed? You are still treacherous. The word is to deliver the goods, but the truth is to send a letter. After your family members know about the incident, they will definitely send the letter far away, so that the people in the distant borders can take precautions."

"Your Majesty really misunderstood me. I just, I just chose this easy way to obtain evidence... If Your Majesty doesn't believe me, I would like to present the secrets of people from far away places. It's just that it takes too long to go back and forth to obtain evidence..."

When Dou Qi heard that the young king was so suspicious, he also complained in his heart, and kowtowed again in a hurry to explain.

"I have plenty of time, but you have little. If you waste any more time, I really don't know how long you can live!"

Li Tong pondered for a while, knocked on the case and said: "Although I am not in love with material gain, but at present, besides this, it is difficult for you to offer your confession elsewhere. Well, your family has a deep foundation in Sichuan, and there must be many secrets in it." Let me tell you in detail, I will consider whether to keep you after the evidence is collected."

After Dou Qi heard the words, he was busy writing at his desk, stopping occasionally to think carefully, and wrote three full scrolls.

After finishing writing, Li Tong motioned Yang Sixu to take the paper away, and then said, "Write it again."

Dou Qi's expression froze, but he didn't dare to refuse, and he was writing at the desk again.After writing it twice, Li Tong didn't ask for more. A good memory is not as good as a bad pen. If this guy really wants to hide traitors, writing it twice is enough to remember.

He shook Dou Qi's two confessions in his hand, and said with a smile: "Now your life is no longer yours. I will send people to Sichuan to verify it one by one. If what is said is true, your life will be forfeited." I kept it. As for the miraculous achievement you mentioned, it’s too far away, let’s just talk about the present moment. Killing you alone is not enough to please me, and saving your life can only help me. I really hope that you can live Come down, let's wait for later."

After Dou Qi heard this, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then ate some food nervously, and then was ordered by the young king to transfer him to another place for detention.

"Your Majesty, do you really want to keep him?"

Yang Sixu murmured from one side, he had been blaming himself for his dereliction of duty for a long time about the assassination, and he still couldn't let it go.

After Li Tong heard the words, he sneered: "What are you keeping him for? After checking the facts, go straight to Longshan to recruit those shady households, and kill them."

It's no wonder that Li Tong is cruel. After talking with this Dou Qi, he felt like looking in the mirror in his heart. Both of them are good at selling their ancestors. There must be many hidden dangers if they stay.

All he needs is the background accumulated by the Dou family. As for this Dou Qi, although he has some evil talents, his skills are a bit more important than his own, and he is not as flamboyant as he is.

It's not that he doesn't have the capacity to tolerate others, but it's not worth paying for this Dou Qi. If he confuses and incites a few words, he will just treat himself as a crouching dragon and phoenix child?Even your allies despise you for being big and useless.

With this kind of energy, I will go to the Raiders to cultivate Yao Chong and Song Jing, isn't it good?

Although it was a bit dishonest to do so, this Dou Qi was not a grudge. He had really tried to kill him and took action. No matter how he dealt with it, Li Tong had no psychological burden.

"Pick up that piece of paper, and tell Tian Shao'an to quickly arrange for someone to investigate, and do it immediately!"

After a short pause, Li Tong pointed to the ball of paper he threw in the corner and said.

"But the king didn't mean to worry..."

After hearing the words, Yang Sixu picked up the ball of paper, and was a little puzzled.

"Worried? What is there to worry about? Once Dou Meiyu enters Beijing, Wannian County will immediately arrest her! His family has no leader, and he still has the mood to take care of remote affairs?"

Chapter 0293 Great King Wise, Think About the Future

When Li Tong and his party returned to Chang'an, the main members of the Dou family were still attending the funeral in Xianyang and did not return. Of course, they would not know that the relative they cried and buried was now detained outside Chang'an.

Being able to successfully capture Dou Qi this time also made the following things much smoother, all he needed to do was to nibble away at the under-the-table industries of the Dou family one by one.

Wu Youyi's family wealth was used by Li Tong to operate the money order.As for these properties of the Dou family, he plans to devote all his efforts to the development of the Old Clothes Club, and to carry out a comprehensive upgrade of the welfare system of the Old Clothes Club, which is no longer limited to simple donations of hemp and clothes.

According to Dou Qisuo, these industries around Xijing are mainly farms.

After all, the land can be permanently produced, and the beautiful house can be passed down from generation to generation. The crazy hoarding of floating wealth like Wu Youyi is really just the behavior of nouveau riche, and there is almost no risk control. Who is hard for who is sweet.

Of course, to get these industries settled, we can't just grab them roughly and distribute them to the old clothing clubs.After all, the Dou family is deeply rooted in Guanzhong, and the loss of family property must be thoroughly investigated. If it is found that most of these properties are owned by the old clothes club, many troubles will inevitably arise.

Taking advantage of Tian Shao'an sending people to find out, Li Tong asked Li Yang from the Chang'an branch to be summoned, and asked: "When there were misunderstandings earlier, you asked Feng Wu to explain the matter, and you have a good relationship with him? What do you think of him? "

Li Yang knew what he said, and said seriously: "If the king asks someone else, his subordinates may still hesitate, but if you say Feng Wu, you can really protect his life. Although he is just a merchant who is very good at making money in the family, but Anyone who has a close relationship with him in the market all calls him righteous. Before his subordinates returned home, they did not know this person. When they first returned, they were punished by the officials and ordered Shi to make things difficult for him. He rushed to rescue him because his father sent him to Eat at my house. I was talking about your Majesty before, because I was afraid that I would not be kind, so I sent my wife and children to me to show my sincerity..."

Hearing that Li Yang spoke so highly of this Feng Wu, Li Tong couldn't help but feel emotional. When he came to this world, although he often saw intrigues, he also saw many real righteous men.

People such as Tian Dasheng from Shenducheng, Master Mo from Pingkangfang in Chang'an, and Feng Wu, including many key members of his former clothing club.These people often have one thing in common, that is, they were born at the bottom, but they can keep their ambitions high and clean.

Not to mention the intrigue among those high-ranking and powerful families, even Li Tong himself often feels ashamed compared to these people.

These people are deeply or shallowly involved with Li Tong, and they are willing to place a trust. Li Tong is also very grateful for this, and only hopes that he can live up to this trust in the future.

"Since this Feng Wu is worthy of entrustment, I also have some affairs to entrust here. Afterwards, I will collect property from the Dou family one after another. I hope that these properties can be properly handed over to the Old Clothes Club, so as to truly benefit these poor soldiers." But there are so many methods of revenge from wealthy families, I believe you also understand how to clean up these industries, or sell them for another purchase, or transfer their names to others. I don’t have too much energy to ask them one by one. Here comes the charter."

Li Tong ordered.

Li Yang was also overjoyed after hearing the words, nodded repeatedly and said: "This is all a matter of duty, we must not let the king down!"

Speaking of this, he paused again, and then asked: "All these assets must be included in the company? Do you need to reserve some of them in the mansion for backup?"

"No need, I have enough food and clothing, and the food is kept out, how much can I sell? You don't need to worry about the expenses of the government. The key is to use these goods for urgent needs."

Li Tong said sternly again: "As a king, I handle this kind of affairs, so I can't claim to be pure in my heart. But when I use the power of the characters, I also hope that these common people can really benefit. This point, you wait and see Those who want to remember.

In the world, there are many people who follow the power, but these government households are really beneficial to the world and few people care about them. The so-called obligatory duty is the foundation of the establishment of the old clothing society.This is not a scene talk, without sincerity, there will be no gathering. "

"The subordinates understand that they must be cautious in their affairs and obey righteousness as their orders!"

Li Yang straightened his waist and crossed his hands, and said in a respectful voice.

Although Li Tong regards interests as the first consideration in everything when he is fighting for power, he does not regard interests as absolute when dealing with the old clothes club.

This is his kind expression to this world, and at the same time, he also understands that if he wants to maintain such a huge organization as the Old Clothes Club, if he cannot uphold the core spirit of "Shang Yi", there will be no cohesion at all.

Everyone has a yearning for a beautiful spirit in their hearts, and this yearning can inspire people with greater strength.For example, those dare warriors, although the formation time is still short, but Li Tong can be sure that if there is an equal number of fights, even the most elite thousand riders in Beiya, the capital of God, may not be able to beat the dare warriors.

This is because they are a team of faith and understand that their struggle is indeed worthwhile.

Li Tong also had a general idea about the next welfare plan of the Old Clothes Club. For example, the basic tasks such as giving clothes and giving porridge before need to continue to be enlarged to radiate more people.Then it is to increase investment in medical care, education, production and other aspects.

Needless to say, medical care and education are very scarce social resources nowadays.

Next, Li Tong will sort out the knowledge points about hygiene and epidemic prevention in his memory. At the same time, he will also ask the old staff of Lintai, the capital of God, to sort out the medical books in the pavilion, choose some effective and timely prescriptions, and edit a story. Yi Materia Medica distributed to the old clothing club.

At the same time, some medical clinics were set up along the way between the two Beijings to treat some emergency patients.Of course, he doesn't have so many medical staff available now, so he has to be selected and trained in the old clothing club system.

In fact, Li Tong has another idea, that is, the medicine stele in the Kaiyuan period, where some commonly used prescriptions are engraved on the stele for occasional use.

However, this aspect requires relatively large manpower and material resources, and if it is to be open to the public, trust is also a problem.

Regarding this point, Li Tong plans to make suggestions to the imperial court in due course after returning to the capital of God, to persuade his grandma that you should not just hold back your efforts to live forever, everyone is really good, and it is also beneficial to engage in public opinion projects Thy dominion.

In terms of education, it is still necessary to focus on training a group of people from the villages around the two capitals to become illiterate, and then spread out the promotion of rural people leading people.

However, Li Tong does not have much confidence in this aspect. After all, human energy is limited. The poorer you are, the more eager you are for success. It takes more than a dozen or even decades to cultivate scholars, but it may not be effective. In fact, it is difficult for strong people.

Canglan knows etiquette from the facts, and if it wants to promote universal education, it must have profound social changes and redistribute social resources.

Therefore, Li Tong does not expect everyone to be able to understand the scriptures when he is engaged in literacy education at the Old Clothes Club. The key is that you must understand some slogans that will be published in the future.Don't let me go to the sky with a cloud-piercing arrow. If you don't know what it means, it will be embarrassing.

As for production, it includes roads, water conservancy and the like.Guanzhong is already short of water, and the trend will become more and more serious.Many bankrupt government households are not without land, but the precious water source is often controlled by local tyrants, and they have to flee after years of poor harvests.

Right now, Li Tong didn't dare to make any big plans to attack the local tyrants and divide the wells, and the strategies he appointed were also based on the current world situation, that is, filial piety, righteous wells, and righteous piers.

Many people's parents don't live long, and if their children and grandchildren are filial, they often make vows, either donate their wealth, or raise funds to dig a well and build a bridge in the village, so as to benefit the village and accumulate evil virtues for the dead.

Li Tong intends to use this form to dig derricks in places where some old clothing clubs live together. One is in line with the sentiments of the world, and the other is to use the power of the government to protect these industries that benefit the people to the greatest extent.

After all, filial piety in the village is one of the achievements of the government. Those local officials are happy to see this, and they don't need to ask for it at all. Any wealthy family who dares to lay hands on these industries will inevitably be punished.

There are all kinds of things, of course, he is only responsible for making plans and collecting money. As for the specific implementation, Li Yang and others, the direct case managers of the former clothing club, need to preside over and supervise.

Li Yang was originally happy because he would have a huge fortune to join the company, but when he heard that the king has so many plans, he couldn't help showing bitterness and said: "The king's various plans are indeed deeply concerned about the people's problems, but if one by one Execution, not to mention whether manpower is sufficient, the property of the Dou family may not be enough."

After Li Tong heard the words, he also laughed and said: "This is also the laying out plan of the old clothing club in the next few years, step by step, do what you can, and don't ask for everything all the time, but you must remember to do it diligently, and what you do is what you do. .If there are any good talents in common affairs in the society, feel free to use them boldly. If you can really hone your talents, your future will not be limited to Kusano!"

Li Yang was even more delighted when he heard this: "Your Majesty really has a wise attitude, and my subordinates really look forward to one day..."

The following words are self-evident, Li Tong just waved his hands and smiled: "It's still in front of your eyes, what will happen next, you can just think about it, there is no need to think about it."

After Li Yang was taught, he got up and said goodbye to arrange the king's orders.

Li Tong then brought out Dou Qi's explanations about various matters in central Sichuan. It's okay to say here in Guanzhong. Although there are many people and things need to be done carefully, it is also one of the strongholds of the old clothes club, and there is no shortage of manpower.As for Shuzhong, he was in a bit of a dilemma as he didn't know who to send to take over a series of properties of the Dou family.

Shuzhong is the back garden of Guanzhong. If it can be fully connected and operated together, its amplification effect will definitely surprise people.
